After glitter hair, people are using make-up on this very unexpected body part

It first appeared on the runway back in 2014, when Anthony Vaccarello models’s ears shone in the spotlight, courtesy of a new kind of body art created by make-up artist Tom Pecheux. In present day, shiny lobes returned on the Louis Vuitton spring/summer 2016 runways, painted a glittering molten gold, reviving the ear make-up trend.

If you’re looking for ear embellishment beyond earrings and are one to take risks, you might just be into this trend. Almost like a temporary tattoo, you can work with colours and textures to make your lobes the centre of attention.

Try outlining the ear using an eye pencil in a rich hue like cobalt, or keep it subtle with just a hint of shimmer on the spot you’d like to focus on.
